What's your sign

The other day Sue Henry on WILK suggested that I check out a political sign at the end of Madison St in Wilkes-Barre just before North St. This piqued the interest of Facebook pal David Wayne of David@DavidWaynePhotography.net who took this picture.

.

Tom Witts is a candidate for city council in Snelville, GA. Why somebody on Madison Street has a yard sign for a local candidate in Georgia is anybody's guess. Maybe some of my North End readers will get on their bikes, ask some questions and report back.

.

According to his website Tom Witts is a big fan of yard signs. I would appreciate your support by allowing me to come by and place one in your front yard.

.

Well Tom, you are certainly welcome to put one in my yard and I will even take a picture and urge all voters in Luzerne County, PA to support your election.

.

You have a friend in Pennsylvania.

.

Update: I learn things with your help.

Tom is a native of Carbondale who left the area in 1966 to serve in the the US Navy. After his service he built a successful business in Florida then relocated to Geogia.

Thank you for your willingness to support my campaign and its always nice to know that I have a friend in PA. My very loving and devoted niece, Ashley Scarpetta, lives at the address where my sign appears. When Ashley heard I was running for office she asked for a yard sign for her yard. Ashley is a (Dean's List) student at Kings and as I said very loyal to her Uncle Tom. Thank you for explaining that I come from NEPA. Tom Witts

It is insane how many political yard signs have sprung up in the last few weeks - sure sign election season is upon us. I think it is definitely one of the best ways to get your name out there for the locals to start researching who you are. I wish you the best of luck Tom! You have my support here!
